Lock in a great price for Meijer's Rust - rated 9.1 by recent guests.

to get started.

Cottage size roomy, good finishes, wifi, interesting nature around, visits from sweet farm dogs made it homey.

Lesley, South Africa

Barry and his father in law are the most generous hosts we ever met. Although it is a running farm, Barry was always interested and willing to help. Opa took us on a ride up the mountains what was lovely. We stayed in the milkbarn, which is a spacey cottage where is everything you need. The beautiful view from the terrace, together with all the sounds of the birds makes our stay fantastic. We would like to come back and stay a bit longer. I highly recommend this place for hikers, nature lovers and families.

Pyt, Netherlands

We couldn't have asked for more. Staying in the Stonehouse was the highlight of our road trip. Rustic but comfortable, peace and solitude, views .... I could go on!

Wendy, South Africa

The silence. The generous host. The natural beauty. The four beautiful chalets.

Manfred, USA

The farm is surrounded by the stunningly beautiful Meeringspoor mountains! The views, dogs & horses had us so entertained that we barely noticed the lack of phone signal or TV. Great break from the city!

“We would return to this high quality cottage - it was very good value.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Chalet
- • Stayed 1 night
The bed linen was perfectly acceptable but not of the same calibre as the high quality finishes elsewhere. There was a broken door bolt so one of the double doors could not be opened and a lack of personal touches such as tissues, soap in the shower, etc.
The finishes of the cottage were of a very high standard and we really enjoyed the quality and the amount of space, particularly in the bathroom. The views from the stoep and while lying in bed were really great. This is a lovely place to stay.
